Centre Court practice for Serena at Wimbledon 2022

Yesterday, Rafael Nadal and Matteo Berrettini became the first players in history to practice on the Centre Court before the tournament. Later, 7-time Wimbledon champion, Serena Williams also took part in the practice session on the Centre Court. In previous years, many players complained about slipping during the early matches. So, Wimbledon decided to let a few top players practice on the Centre Court before the first-round matches.?

Interestingly, this could be a good thing for the American tennis player, as she will get used to the surface and the court before her first-round match. Incidentally, she retired from the first-round match last year after suffering a hamstring injury.?
